ABA TECHSHOW’s “Startup Alley”: The Canadian Contingent

Leading up to ABA TECHSHOW 2023 this March 1st thru 4th, our Slaw friend and occasional writer Colin Lachance has alerted me to these five Canadian legal tech startups who have made the Top-40 for this year’s Startup Alley.

• CiteRight is an essential litigation tool that simplifies legal research and writing by allowing users to save cases, generate automatic citations and produce court documents.
• Jurisage AI accelerates legal research through instant access to case law insights.
• Fidu helps legal teams ditch the billable hour for good in exchange for flat fee and subscription legal services by systematizing and scaling how they deliver value to their clients.
• Haloo is the ‘GoDaddy’ of small business trademarking and the global leader in AI-powered trademark search for law firms and enterprise brands.
• Wisedocs uses AI to help lawyers and insurance companies evaluate medical records.

From these forty companies, only the top-15 will able to make their pitch live on-stage in Chicago.

How can you support this Canadian contingent you may ask? (I know you didn’t ask, but I’m flying my maple leaf here. Stick with me!)

The answer is an online vote. The 15 “pitch-worthy” companies will be selected to present by a public vote. Voting is open now and you can read more about the other semifinalists and how to vote here.

Slaw offers our congratulations these five innovative companies on making the shortlist! Hopefully Slaw’s readership will consider voting their support; and let’s see if we can get one of these companies on stage in Chicago!
